The Raji cell line, originating from Burkitt's lymphoma, was established in 1961 by Epstein and colleagues. Raji cells are characterized by their B lymphocyte origin and carry the Epstein-Barr virus genome. Over the years, Raji cells have served as a fundamental model in immunology and oncology research due to their ability to express various cell surface markers and cytokines relevant to B cell biology.
Luciferase Stable Cell Lines refer to cell lines engineered to express luciferase, a light-emitting enzyme derived from fireflies. Luciferase assays are widely utilized in molecular biology for monitoring gene expression, cell viability, and protein-protein interactions. The fusion of luciferase with target genes allows for real-time, non-invasive monitoring of cellular processes in vitro and in vivo.
The creation of Raji-Luciferase Stable Cell Lines involves transfection of Raji cells with luciferase expression vectors followed by selection and maintenance of stable clones expressing luciferase. This technology enables researchers to investigate signaling pathways, drug efficacy, and disease progression in the context of B cell biology.
Therapies rooted in immuno-oncology (IO), including checkpoint inhibitors, bispecific antibodies, and CAR-T-cell therapies, have demonstrated notable efficacy in treating various cancer types. Researchers utilized the Luciferase Stable Cell Line - Raji to investigate immuno-oncology (IO)-based therapies, aiming to address adverse events like cytokine release syndrome (CRS). By employing an in vivo PBMC humanized mouse model, treatment efficacy against specific tumors and concurrent cytokine release profiles post-CD19xCD3 bispecific T-cell engager (BiTE) treatment were assessed. Results demonstrated predictive efficacy for tumor control and stimulated cytokine release, capturing donor variability. The PBMC-engrafted model proves sensitive and reproducible, aiding in identifying patient-specific treatment efficacy and complication development in immuno-oncology therapies.
Figure 1. Researchers assessed cytokine release in humanized NSG-variant mice with Raji-Luc tumors after various immune-oncology treatments. Luciferase Stable Cell Line - Raji served to monitor tumor burden in mice through IVIS imaging, revealing treatment efficacy. The Raji_Luc cell line, acquired from Creative Biogene, is a single-cell line expressing Firefly luciferase with an emission peak wavelength of 550 nm. (Yang, J., et al., 2023)
